Ash Wednesday

Of all acts of man, repentance is the most divine. The greatest of all faults is to be conscious of none.

--Thomas Carlyle

one can't repent unless one acknowledges sins...

How many people do you know that say, "But, I'm not a sinner"??? It all comes down to understanding that we ARE sinners!

Two Alike

What happiness a friend, a fellow kind,
whose gentle hands attend a heart entwined,
for, long as loving likens two,
they consummate a life anew,
aligned;

but none may know the ties, when so profane,
and none, with open eyes, will ascertain
the bond, invisible, but true,
that suffering cannot subdue,nor strain;

and so, this holy whole, incorporate
and incorporeal, is our oblate,to lift an everlasting hue
for treasures that we hold and do
await.
